Two Companies Come Together to Raise Awareness About Patient Safety

Henry Schein will feature highlights of OSAP?s SafestDentalVisit campaign throughout the month of May. Henry Schein will also donate a portion of sales from infection control products to the OSAP Foundation.

According to a press release from OSAP, ?the SafestDentalVisit campaign, an education program that addresses patient safety, the practice environment and behavior change, includes practice training resources, such as the newly released publication ?Infection Control in Practice Team Huddle?Interactive Guides for Staff Meetings.??

?It is very generous of Henry Schein to offer OSAP the opportunity for a second consecutive year to be featured in a special promotion that not only raises awareness about the importance of patient safety, but also raises money to help fund the development of innovative education tools that help reduce risk in dentistry,? said Therese Long, OSAP executive director.

?We thank Henry Schein and the 14 companies participating in the sales promotion for their commitment to OSAP?s advocacy for the safe and infection-free delivery of oral health care. Through the support of our corporate partners and the profession, OSAP will continue to ramp up its ability to help translate policy into practical and user-friendly compliance tools. We encourage dental practices to participate in this important promotion.?
